Club History
UUJMC stands for University of Ulster Jordanstown Mountaineering Club
Jordanstown has a long history of mountaineering and the current club came about from a resurection of badness which happened in 1998. The guilty parties involved in bringing the club back to life were Dave Carlisle & JP Quinn
Club Membership
Club membership consists of a band of reprobates (aka ex-jtown students) together with a healthy number of current students. We have a large number of international fans from countries such as Germany, Bavaria, America, Australia and Spain
